Has anyone any info on 425hp 409 pontiacsfrom1963? I had one I bought new in 63 and a buddy bought an identical one after seeing mine .I am curious as too any others that someone might have heard of. Mine was a Stratochief, 2 door car,4speed.
That 63 Strato Chief 2 dr sedan that you had would be incredibly rare with 409/425 4 spd. Aubrey Bruneau's site has tons of info on early 409 Pontiacs. http://www.bruneauperformance.ca/ I saw a 425 HP 4 spd Parisienne HT for sale in Ontario about 7 years go. All original red car in nice shape, but sold by the time I got to it. Saw it the following year with new paint and mags. Beautiful car. There is also a 64 409/340 Parisienne convt currently for sale in Maine, and a 63 409/340 Parisienne wagon also for sale in the US - it's been on E-bay a few times.
I did look at that site in Alta but he didnt have any info on that combo. I was hoping that either mine or my fgriends may have survied and someone might have heard of them. I still have the build sheet and sales inoice as well as a couple of pictures but unfortunatly thats all that is left!!
No Harry, I don't know about any 63's, but I DO know of a 64 StratoChief post, 425 horse, in a small town in western Alberta. Car is untouchable though.
There is a 63 parisenne in Calgary that had the 409 4 speed transplanted from another wrecked 63 parisenne. The car is only a couple blocks from my place but it hasn't moved in probably 10 years or more and he won't sell it.

Post a scan of the build sheet and the invoice, we'd love to see them!
